This shoe gets more comfortable the longer the run goes on. It's as if the midsole forms to your foot like a big marshmallow. I ran a 50K in them and I had no foot pain other than a few blisters. As far as fit, I bought my first pair going a half size up (10.5) from what I normally wear. I really liked the overall feel of that first shoe, but I could tell I'd be better served by going down a half-size, so I bought another pair in a size 10, which is what I wore in my 50k. I still use my 10.5 for training runs and they fit well enough for that. Durability hasn't been an issue with either pair (one is at 80 miles and the other is at 55 miles). The do seem to get dirty quickly so I've cleaned each pair a couple of times (this is maybe motivated by the $260 price tag and a desire to protect that investment). I've done some stream crossings with them. They dry out pretty well but not as well as I would have expected for a shoe with such a porous upper. The braided laces are awesome. Every shoe company should use these laces. Not once have they come untied.
Lightest, best fitting shoe. No break in period. I'm taking up running again.
